Advice for anxious times from the FT’s management columnist, a French children’s newspaper, and a former commander of the Israeli Defense Force. On a practical level, they all boil down to the same thing: carry on as normal. I must remember to do this.
After Britain’s EU referendum, Lucy Kellaway didn’t do any work either, but when she did get back to it her sanest conversation was about shoes (and not Theresa May’s). The former IDF commander, Amos Guiora, says we must “live life as if there is no terrorism while recognizing the reality of terrorism.” If you need help doing this, you could follow the advice given in Le Petit Quotidien and put fear outside yourself by writing.
